Shine On
voices calling me back inside
watch your step, too close to the light
come back quickly, come back in my arms
keep on trying, I'm not sure why
misguided mission, a plan to survive
fighting the battles, yet there is no war
now we all shine on
now we all shine on
now we all walk through the door with our hearts alive
now we all shine on
something's happening, not sure what it is
senses waking, feel to explode
can't hold back now, it all starts to flow
who has led me to this place
who has shown me my true face
fog is lifting, amazed at what I've found
now I feel the earth below rising up through me
now I feel heaven above reaching down to me
standing in the center, watching it all
circle around us, together again
all the illusions are starting to fade
now we all shine on
now we all shine on
now we all walk through the door with our hearts alive
now we all shine on
now we all shine on
now we all walk down the road with our souls afire
now we all shine on
Nobody's There
I saw the life in the roses looking
at me....radiating
I heard their voices singing secrets to me
...and I drank the water
tasted silence
quenched my thirst
...and I climbed the mountain,
looked around
no one was there
nobody's there
I stood in fields with the colors entering me ....penetrating
I watched my eyes become open windows in me
...and I drank the water
tasted silence
quenched my thirst
...and I climbed the mountain,
looked around
no one was there
nobody's there
I felt the life in the music
take me away....disappearing
dancing my body ëround
until the dance was me
...and I drank the water
tasted silence
quenched my thirst
...and I climbed the mountain,
looked around
no one was there
nobody's there
Something to Hold
the games I play to win you
to convince you I'm the one
I wonder when I break you
will I turn and run
I know how bad I want you
obsession crashing down
measured by the trembling
that shakes my world apart
I hear the child that's lost
cry out in the dark
searching desperately
for something to hold
I know the spell will fade
and leave me alone
and weep for the love
that was lost when the dream is done
I know what I'm doing
can't seem to let it go
consumed by the longing
that I put on you
I Feel Fine
I know that sometimes I don't
show how much you mean to me
it's not that I don't appreciate having you in my
life
I'd like to take the time right now to show you how
I feel
I've put it right here into this song sweet and clear
do you hear?...
it's not the things you do for me that open up my
heart
what you believe and how you care to help this
needing world, those are all fine and noble things
that have their place in this life, but deeper than
your thoughts and your deeds I see you
oh you...
over the water and through the trees
across the hilltops as fast as can be
I fly to you with the wind in my hair
the sun on my face not holding a care
I'm Alive
ain't no real reason
ain't too hard to tell
when it starts rising there ain't no doubt
follow the feeling
see where it goes
do you hear it calling run with me
I'm alive
don't think about it,
ain't no time to waste
go out and get it before it's too late
fear is a shadow without a real form
dive in the middle and be reborn
I'm alive
closer I come to see you
change before my eyes
shallow waters I thought were deep
strange reflections blinded my right to see
innocence reveals the new,
when you think you know youíve missed the
chance
every moment waits unknown
standing at the door jump instead
I'm alive
To Hear Your Voice
the wolves have come in and tore
away
all the flowers you've saved, sheltered and bathed
the fragrance lost in the faith that you held
in one who brought you home and tended
for your fields where you can dance...ah dance
to hear your voice has brought me back
to the place where silence reigns
it's all right
too far away
to show you where I keep my piece of you,
it's all right
the wolves have come in and tore away
all the flowers you've saved, sheltered and bathed
the fragrance lost in the faith that you held
in one who brought you home and tended
for your fields where you can dance...ah dance
what was the cost
to reach beyond the clouds to feel the sun,
it has begun
come with me now
I'll lead you back to the place where you can
see, what I see
the wolves have come in and tore away
all the flowers you've saved, sheltered and bathed
the fragrance lost in the faith that you held
in one who brought you home and tended
for your fields where you can dance...ah dance
Secrets
as I look in your eyes I wonder
what's behind that smile youíre flashing
please wonít you let me in
tell me, tell me all your secrets
I know they're killing you
show me, show me all of yours
and I'll show you all of mine
let ëem burn in the fire fueled on by the
trust
let ëem burn down to ashes and melt into
the earth
as you reach out your hand to me
somehow I can't believe youíre all right
what are you trying to hide?
tell me, tell me all your secrets
I know they're killing you
show me, show me all of yours
and I'll show you all of mine
let ëem burn in the fire fueled on by the
trust
let ëem burn down to ashes and melt into
the earth
as you look to everyone around you
there you lose that which seems to elude you
the dark is so carefully hidden
tell me, tell me all your secrets
I know they're killing you
show me, show me all of yours
and I'll show you all of mine
let ëem burn in the fire fueled on by the
trust
let ëem burn down to ashes and melt into
the earth
Just For You
(lyrics by Gregor
Stewart)
I sit alone
trying to pass the time away
I sit at home
looking at your pictures everyday
I love your laugh
wanting to hold you in that
special way and when the tears fall
my love wonít fade away
my love is here for you
I will shelter you from the storm
my love is here for you
for you
I hear the phone
and instantly I think of you
but youíre not there
only the thoughts I keep of you
through the coldest nights
and the longest days
one day Iíll sing this song for you
and youíll hear me say
my love is here for you
I will shelter you from the storm
my love is here for you
for you
I sit alone
trying to pass the time away
I sit at home
looking at your pictures everyday
I love your laugh
wanting to hold you in that
special way and when the tears fall
my love wonít fade away
my love is here for you
I will shelter you from the storm
my love is here for you
for you
Before My Eyes
I have come to know
that all that passes before my eyes
a myriad of clouds that fills the sky
pause a while to play with the sun
a million shapes in constant change
that move through my life
friends and lovers
that sing through my heart
I know how lucky I am
I have come to know
that everything that I think I am
a warm thin veil of smoke that floats about
dissipates with a slight gust of wind
whether blue sky or pouring rain
something remains
as I walk through the open front door
I canít imagine what Iíll
find
traveled through strange, strange lands
pulled my eyes wide open
tried to run, tried to hide
still I would not turn away
friends and lovers
that sing through my heart
I know how lucky I am
as I walk through the open front door
I can't imagine what I'll find
River's End
never feeling below the
signs
I just glazed on by
calculating the reasons why
coats away the time
well thought insights
don't hold much ground
when my core starts to shake
far beyond the words that soothe
there lies heavens gate
then I found you on my way
to the places I've always been
my mali was soft and wet
a shell that had yet to form
held the flame in our hands
as we searched for the rainbowís
end
as I watched you make the gate
on your way to the riverís end
taking refuge in the arms
of hope of what could be
give all I am
to a wish to be...already there
chased my dreams across the world
when did I land?
dreams, like movies, always end
and here I am
then I found you on my way
to the places I've always been
my mali was soft and wet
a shell that had yet to form
held the flame in our hands
as we searched for the rainbowís
end
as I watched you make the gate
on your way to the riverís end
